Red Faction: Armageddon -- Questions Answered

It's a tough life when you're the developer of the Red Faction series. Those guys spend months building a fantastical depiction of human life on Mars, complete with shiny space vehicles and sweet alien-inspired architecture, and then you, the gamer, come in and blast it all to smithereens. You probably kick over sand castles too, you big meanie.

Red Faction: Armageddon, the latest in Volition's highly destructible series, is set half a century after the Red Faction resistance freed Mars, in a time when the red planet has once again become a battleground. Colonists are struggling for survival in the underground mines after the surface is rendered uninhabitable. When Darius Mason, grandson of revolution heroes Alec Mason and Samanya, unknowingly releases a long-dormant evil, Armageddon is unleashed on Mars.

Want to know more? Then why not ask the team at developer Volition yourselves? IGN is hosting a Facebook thread and they will select their favourites and flick them over to the development team. How will they choose? Basically, they are looking for Red Faction fans that provide us with interesting, intelligent and thought-provoking questions - and please keep them short and to the point. If you're lucky, they will post your question with the answer on the IGN page.
